.net - What WinForm Control To Bind List (Of T)

Jul 1, 2009

I have been working on keeping things object oriented for my project. Currently, I'm using a .DLL which supplies all of the app's classes to the WinForms project acting as the presentation layer.My .DLL will, for example, return a SortableBindingList(Of T) to code in a form. The SortableBindingList(Of T) comes from here. Let's assume a SortableBindingList(Of Product). Assuming that the .DLL's function Services.Products.GetList() returns a SortableBindingList(Of Product), I can easily do this:

DataGridView1.DataSource = Services.Products.GetList()

Now, the DataGridView is properly populated with my list of Products. Fine. However, there is no .SelectedItem property which gives me back my object which was selected in the DataGridView:

' Doesn't exist!
Dim p As Product = DataGridView1.SelectedItem
' Need to make another DB call by getting the Product ID
' from the proper Cell of the DataGridView ... yuck!

However, a ComboBox or a ListBox does in fact store and return my Product objects intact:

' Valid!
ComboBox1.DataSource = Services.Products.GetList()
Dim p as Product = ComboBox1.SelectedItem

Another however ... the ComboBox and ListBox do not show all of the fields of the Product object, only the value of the DisplayMember property.Is there a nice control in VB.NET 2008 that I am just missing, which gives me the object oriented functionality that I want which will actually display an entire object's fields and also return that object back when selected by the user?

Bind A List Of Custom Objects To A Listbox Control?

Jun 25, 2010

vs2010 vb.net WPF project

This is an experiment to learn something.

I have a class called logitem

it has a datetime property, and a message as string property

I have declared myLogEntries as List(of logItem)

I have a ListBox.

Ok now what?

I have searched but i am getting lost in all the examples.

I have set the ItemsSource=myLogEntries

I think i need a datatemplate or maybe to specify binding source.

I am doing all this in the wpf form loaded event.

I guess i need a sample code for binding a list of collection to a listbox.

Bind Control.Text Property To Control Position In FlowLayoutPanel?

Jun 6, 2012

Is there a way to bind the text property of a control to an expression? I have a user control that I add to a FlowLayoutPanel. You can see I have 4 controls in the FlowLayoutPanel below. The first control is a LinkLabel and the other three are my user controls which are numbered 1, 2, & 3. I'd like to bind the label that shows the 1, 2, or 3 to the user controls index within the FlowLayoutPanel.

If I happen to remove the 2nd user control I want the 3rd user control to now display 2. I could use the FlowLayoutPanel ControlAdded or ControlRemoved events, but wanted to see if I could do some binding first.

Bind Property Of User Control To One Of The Parent Control's Fields?

Dec 30, 2011

If I need access to the value of a user control's property BEFORE PreRender, would I need to base the custom control off of one of the preexisting data controls (repeater, listview,etc.)?One of my user controls features a gridview control that is configured based on the user control's properties on which it resides. Several of the key properties alter the SQL Statement for the underlying recordsource. I'm now in a situation where the property that sets the WHERE statement for the SQL Statement needs to tied to a value in the user control's parent FormView. Think of the formview as displaying a customer detail record. The user control takes the customer's account number and then displays data from a related table such as Customer Contact Names. Since the gridview is created before the control's prerender event, working within the prerender event doesn't seem efficient.

Update Sharepoint List From Winform

Mar 21, 2012

I'd like to write an app that would allow users to modify existing records in a WSS sharepoint list and/or create new records.I feel confident that its possible, but I just don't know exactly how. Sharepoint access, for me, is accessed with domain credentials, so I"d need some method for getting those from the user, in the winform, and passing those along to the WSS server.

Looping Through Each Control On Winform

Feb 11, 2012

I have a winform and i have about 30 labels and 30 picture boxes on it. What i would like to do is fill each label and picturebox with a value and image from a backend database. I could have easily done this in vb6 using control struture , for eg.

for x = 1 to 30
picturebox(x).image = value from database
label(x).caption = value from database
next x

Is there something similar i can do in vb.net. I search a lot but found only complex programs difficult to understand and too much of OOP.

Hosting Winform User Control In IE8?

Apr 11, 2010

I have a Winform UC packed in a CAB and hosted in an aspx web page using the <object> tag. In IE7, things work. But in IE8, no matter what settings I choose, the control never gets installed. I need to point IE8 to the CAB, download it, unpack it, and run the installer in the client machine, outside IE8. The UC is fairly complex, and requires several DLLs (third party components). The control reads data from hidden fields in the hosting page, and calls javascript functions on the page.

Cloning WinForm Control Possible - GroupBox Layout?

Feb 4, 2010

I have a groupox in a VB.NET winform app. The groupbox contains a few Labels, Textboxes and Checkboxes. This was created by simply dragging the controls out of VS toolbox. What I need to do is take the 1 Groupbox and at runtime create multiple Groupboxes to display based on user selection. Instead of dynamically creating the Groupboxes and other controls nested inside, is there a way to clone or copy the original one. Then I'd just change the properties. Label text, Textbox text, etc. And the location of the Groupbox in the layout.
